Just get a job you like… sure, no problem. What if even getting a job of any kind is hard. Billionaires probably never thought of that.

I do have a job I like. But I still need balance. Because my job isn't reading some mails and reading the fucking papers.
But nothing new from those type of people and it shows yet again why you shouldn't trust their proclamations of how much they "work".

I like my job because it allows for work life balance (mostly because of a long respected union culture).

I’m beginning to see a pattern here. Billionaires say we don’t need balance or unions, but those are the things that actually improve the quality of my life. So, the billionaires are effectively saying I shouldn’t enjoy my life.
